Members phkrause Posted July 25, 2020 Author Members Share Posted July 25, 2020 The physical act of passing through a doorway is the reason why you often walk into a room and completely forget what you were doing. Because going through a door signifies the beginning or end of something, this creates an "event boundary" within your mind. Basically, every time you walk through a doorway, your brain starts filing away thoughts from your previous location to make room for a new group of memories in the next.

Members phkrause Posted July 28, 2020 Author Members Share Posted July 28, 2020 "L'appel du vide" is when you have self-destructive thoughts for a split second – like swerving your car into oncoming traffic or imagining yourself jumping when you're standing at the edge of a cliff even though you'd never really do it.

The pub has a record of every owner in its history, including Boy George, and has centuries of photos, artifacts,and memorabilia on display.

Members phkrause Posted August 4, 2020 Author Members Share Posted August 4, 2020 Using hot water to wash your hands is no more effective than using cold water.
